BDP Employee Dedication Award Winner

I wanted to let you know how much of a pleasure it’s been working with Steven Picado. SABIC has been under the gun all year and we’ve moved a little over 1 million kgs of airfreight year to date; Of that about 500,000 kgs moved via the ORD gateway and via our service.
Communication has been top notch, Steve spent many evenings keeping the business up to date on critical moves. All of the cargo we tendered moved at or before the scheduled flights and the gateway’s relationships paid off in spades. In a two week period we moved close to 200MT flawlessly and below market pricing. This in my opinion was no accident.The system worked in text book style. The business sold the cargo and the gateway got us great rates and ample carriers to capitalize on. Operations communicated with the gateways and the cargo was
executed on without excuses or service failures.
There is no magic here just hard work, dedication and real industry knowledge. It’s a pleasure and
privilege to get to work day in and day out with your team and to have a partner you can count on, especially in challenging times.
